Dental Crowns in Coquitlam

If you're in need of dental crowns in Coquitlam, look no further than Oasis Dental Studio. Our experienced dentists are dedicated to providing top-quality dental crown services, including tooth crowns (also known as tooth caps, and dental caps), to restore your teeth and improve your oral health. Dental crowns offer a variety of benefits when it comes to tooth restoration but take a different approach to other common tooth restoration services like dental bridges or fillings.

Dental crowns, sometimes referred to as tooth crowns or tooth caps, are custom-made restorations that encase a damaged tooth, restoring its shape, strength, and functionality. They are designed to resemble natural teeth and are crafted to provide a seamless blend with your existing teeth.

Our dental crowns are carefully crafted using high-quality materials, with porcelain being one of the popular choices. Porcelain teeth offer exceptional durability and a natural appearance, closely resembling the color, shape, and translucency of your natural teeth. Porcelain crowns not only provide strength and protection but also enhance the overall aesthetics of your smile.

There are several situations where a dental crown may be recommended, such as:

• Severe tooth decay: Dental crowns are an excellent option when a tooth has extensive decay and cannot be effectively restored with a regular filling.
• Tooth damage: Whether you have a fractured tooth or a tooth with a large filling that is weakening, a dental crown can restore its structure, protect it from further damage, and improve its appearance.
• Cosmetic improvements: Dental crowns are often used to address cosmetic concerns, such as misshapen, discolored, or poorly aligned teeth. They can significantly enhance the appearance of your smile.

The process of getting a dental crown usually involves three visits to our Coquitlam dental office. Here's a general overview of what you can expect, including the use of temporary crowns:

1. Initial consultation: During your first visit, our dentists will assess your dental health, discuss your concerns, and determine if a dental crown is the right treatment for you.
2. Tooth preparation: If a dental crown is recommended, the affected tooth will be prepared by removing a small amount of the tooth structure (0.5-1.0 mm) to create space for the crown. Impressions will be taken to ensure an accurate fit.
3. Temporary crown placement: While your permanent crown is being fabricated in a dental laboratory, a temporary crown will be placed to protect the prepared tooth and to help maintain your smile.
4. Final crown placement: Once your permanent crown, such as a porcelain crown, is ready, you will return for its placement. Our dentist will ensure a proper fit, make any necessary adjustments, and then place the crown securely to the prepared tooth using dental cement.

Throughout the process, our caring and knowledgeable team will guide you and address any questions or concerns you may have.
